Printing and photocopying

Students have access to MFD (multi-function devices) that offer printing, scanning and copying in both the Computer Room and the Library.

Both of these are managed via the University DS-Print facility and are part of the University Common Balance Scheme.

This means that students can top up their print credit online using a debit or credit card. This credit can then be used in the College Computer Room or in other MCS rooms in Departments or other institutions. The minimum amount that can be credited to a Common Balance account is £1

Common Balance accounts stay current for the duration of your time at Cambridge. Any credit remaining when you leave Cambridge will not be refunded but is returned into the scheme to help fund future operations.

The College provides an annual academic allowance for all students. For 2017-18 this is £8. This is a local balance and can only be used with the devices in College.

Paper stocks in the Library are managed by Library staff. If paper is required in the College Computer Room, then please contact the College IT Department.
